About this episode
Donna Adelson Trial: Jeffrey LaCasse Testifies About Wendi Adelson & TV Repair Story

In a pivotal day of testimony, the jury in the Trial of Donna Adelson heard from Jeffrey LaCasse, the former boyfriend of Wendi Adelson. LaCasse delivered striking recollections about conversations he had with Wendi in the aftermath of her divorce from Dan Markel, and in the months leading up to his murder. One of the most memorable details was his account of Wendi telling him that her brother, Charlie Adelson, had “looked into all options” when it came to solving the family’s custody frustrations—words that now carry chilling weight in the courtroom.

LaCasse also addressed the infamous “TV repair story,” a tale prosecutors argue was concocted to provide cover for suspicious behavior in the days following Markel’s killing. His testimony painted a picture of subtle but deliberate messaging within the Adelson family, suggesting that explanations were crafted in advance to shield themselves from suspicion.

Why does this matter? Because LaCasse’s words don’t just provide color—they give jurors a glimpse into Wendi’s mindset and the broader family conversations that may have revealed motive. By confirming the stories Wendi told him, LaCasse connected personal anecdotes to the larger web prosecutors say tied Donna, Charlie, and Wendi together in orchestrating the plot. His testimony brought the focus back to Donna’s influence, showing how deep her family’s entanglement in the case runs.
